Chapter 141 Intermission Alice ~ The Thoughts Dwelling within the Shadows ~ (2/2)
He drew Shallow Vernal-sama’s interest and pulled Isis-san away from loneliness.
I don’t think he realizes it though, but those were extraordinary achievements…… at least, enough to astonish me and make me change my mind.
If it’s Kaito-san, he may be able to grant Kuro-san’s wish…… That’s what I have judged, and so, I started moving behind the scenes.
If he’s going to seriously stand before Kuro-san, he would need to have a strong heart…… Yes, for example, to the point where he wouldn’t lose himself when he’s facing off all of the Six Kings……

That’s why I have given him all sorts of trials. Whether or not this person’s heart would submit or whether or not this person’s heart would be distorted…… However, Kaito-san was unwavering.
He could be shaken, he could be confused…… but still remaining upright, he won Megiddo-san’s trust.
And that also includes mine……
I honestly didn’t think that a mere mortal could disturb my mind to such an extent.
I enjoy talking to Kaito-san, feeling glad even as the seriously concerned Kaito-san is scolding me when I do stupid things…… Missing him at those times that Kaito-san’s not here.
Haahh… Good grief…… I’ve already lived for a long time. Who would have thought that this adult me would feel love…… You’re really something……
In the shop at dusk, I hear the door open and a small shadow enters.
[Welcome, Kuro-san.]
[Unnn.]
The one who came in was Kuro-san.

Right from the start, I had told Kuro-san that I was in contact with Kaito-san under the name of Alice, and even when she came to our business meeting before, she properly understood my intentions and kept quiet.
[……Kaito-kun. How is he?]
[He passed. I don’t have any complaints here…… Well, in my opinion, he has already passed after the fourth trial, but the fifth one was just something like a bonus.]
[……I see.]
Hearing my reply, Kuro-san has a complicated expression on her face.
The meaning of the fact that I told her that Kaito-san passed, Kuro-san obviously knows that.
[……Kuro-san. Kaito-san is the one you’ve been looking for.]
[……That is something…… I still don’t know……]
[You’re really stubborn, aren’t you? Well, that’s fine. I’m sure that it won’t be too long before Kaito-san…… stands before you. And then, he will go challenge the depths of your soul that neither I nor the other Six Kings have been able to reach.]
[……………!?]

Kuro-san looks as if she’s about to cry.
There’s something she’s been seeking for a long time…… but she’s given up hope of ever getting it.
Neither Kuro-san nor I could get it…… but now, Kaito-san is getting as close to that as possible.
Maybe, if it’s Kaito-san…… having such a faint hope is probably making Kuro-san suffer more than ever before.
It took too long for him to show up…… Long years has she become caged, and being suddenly offered a miracle in front of her would make her reject it.
[……Shalltear, what if I…… “kill Kaito-kun”…… What will you do?]
[……It’s not like I will do anything special.]
When Kuro-san quietly told me that, I also quietly replied.
[If you kill Kaito-san…… I will mourn, regret, and feel angry…… I will fight you to the death…… and probably “die” because I’m not strong enough to defeat you.]
[………………….]

[It’s nothing special. If Kaito-san dies, I will die too, I didn’t intend to fall in love without that level of commitment.]
[………………….]
In my words filled with determination, Kuro-san remains silent and doesn’t say anything.
Kuro-san also understands. She also knows that the day when that will happen isn’t far away……
Well, as far as I’m concerned, I’m only thinking about what to do to win over Kaito-san…… After that, I would make my approach and make her see me as a woman as well.
Well, let’s put a stop to thinking about this for the future.
Because at some point, when that time comes, whether we want it or not…… the answer will come to us by itself.
Kaito-san…… I adore you. That’s why, please…… More than anything, I wish for you a happy ending……
Kuro: “………….. (I was just in the mood to mutter a whole lot of dots here, but she’s replying very seriously now!? What should I do, I can’t really say that I made that face as a joke now……)”
